Fall of Equestria: Bringer of Doom

Three Years Later

"Keep pushing them back!" Luna shouted over the hail of gunfire. "We'll take this land and burn and salt it until they're but dredges of guts and dirt beneath our hooves!"

"FOR EQUESTRIA!" came the chorus of Equestria's reformed army.

Ponies of all kinds and backgrounds charged over the rubble of cobblestone and iron, each one wearing a green suit of composite materials to withstand the new weapons that they now carried into battle. Showers of lead and explosive rockets sailed overhead as the Equestrians charged the borders of Eichenwalde, stomping over the corpses of Caribou as they pushed in.

"Clear the area!" a mare shouted from the gates.

Nightmarish energy rippled the space in front of the city until massive beasts of red writhed from the tear in reality, screeching and roaring as they swiped at nearby Equestrians.

"Fire in the hole!" a maroon stallion shouted.

A burst of flame erupted from the barrel of his massive cannon, the demon exploding into a shower of gore as the explosive device impacted its hardened flesh. As it recoiled in pain from the surprise amputation, nearby soldiers began to concentrate their weapons on its opened innards. The combined firepower from their automatic rifles and pump-action shotguns brought the beast to its knees, whereupon Luna flew up to its face with her new weapon.

She pulled back the cord on the end of the sword's handle, the inner engine rumbling awake as the teeth of the two-meter long blade began to run down the track of the sword before she plunged the mechanical weapon into its maw, forcing it upward until its eyes began to pour blood. After another few seconds of this, she tore upwards with another heave and ripped the skull of the demon in two.

As the beast dropped dead, soldiers began to throw themselves against the massive doors to the city, forgoing their firearms as they unleashed the rage of the Fall onto the barrier that tried to cease their advance. Luna flew above the wall to the city and examined the other side, her metal-plated armor deflecting a few spells as she saw the Caribou mount their last defense.

"And once we wipe out the last of Dainn's loyalists, we can begin indoctrinating the surviving does and young," Blueblood proposed.

Celestia slowly nodded along as she strained herself to keep a neutral look.

"Very well. Have there been any other developments?" she said.

Looking over the refurbished war-room, she was able to see a live feed of the battle for Eichenwalde, currently from Luna's view, broadcast on the center screen of the wall. In the middle of the room sat a white-plated terminal with a strangely shaped triangle in the center. From this terminal came a voice.

"The surge of Argent Energy in the Eastern continent has been identified and located," VEGA said. "I can send the Marine in at any moment, should we need to."

Celestia shook her head as she cracked her neck.

"No, it's my turn now."

"Understood. I will inform the Marine that he does not need to be present."

Fluttershy sighed as she stretched in her lawn chair, the chirps of the birds and the running stream beneath the nearby bridge lulling her into a serene calm that she was ever so thankful for. Cracking an eye open, she spotted a familiar figure approaching, his hulking form casting a long shadow over her.

"Something wrong, Doomy?" she said.

The Doom Guy held up a small device to her, the line of text reading, Orders retracted.

"Oh, it's okay, I'm sure you'll get a work day soon."

The Doom Guy proceeded to crush the device in his hand before gesturing to her.

"Of course," Fluttershy said before getting up.

Doom Guy then proceeded to sit on the chair himself, the steel and plastic groaning in protest at the weight of his sheer muscle mass. Fluttershy then proceeded to sit on top of the Doom Marine as he pulled out a comb from under the chair. She laid over his body before curling up a bit so that she was resting on him entirely, the Marine slowly starting to brush her mane as a small smile cracked on his face.

thump

A figure stood up from the shadow behind the chair, a broken horn sticking out of the side of the figure's head as it glared at the Doom Marine with one eye.

"You monster, I'll have revenge for my people!" the Caribou shouted as it pulled out a knife.

"WRYYYYY!"

A white mass then impacted on the side of the Caribou's face, the victim screaming in agony as the small animal began to eat its way through his eye. It then tunneled through the large open space inside the Caribou's head before ingesting its minuscule brain in one gulp before clawing its way out of the skull.

As the body hit the ground with a solid thud, the rabbit hopped over the chair and landed on Fluttershy's lap, the mare gasping at the sight.

"Angel Bunny!" she cried with a smile.

The rabbit squeaked in joy as Fluttershy cupped the bunny before nuzzling him affectionately. As she did, Angel gave the Doom Guy a thumbs up, to which the Marine responded with a large grin and a thumbs up in return.
